IndiGo expands its Middle East footprint with new Bengaluru-Riyadh direct flights, starting 16 November 2025

IndiGo, India's preferred airline, announced the launch of direct flights between Bengaluru and Riyadh, starting 16 November 2025. IndiGo will operate its Airbus A320 aircraft on this new route, offering affordable and seamless connectivity for travellers. Riyadh is the second city in Saudi Arabia, after Jeddah, to be directly connected to India's technology hub.

IndiGo currently connects India with four key cities in Saudi Arabia - Jeddah, Riyadh, Dammam, and Madinah - along with a growing network across the Middle East. The addition of the Bengaluru-Riyadh route further strengthens IndiGo's presence in the region. This expansion supports the increasing demand driven by business travel, trade, workforce movement, and tourism between India and the Middle East.

Mr. Vinay Malhotra, Head of Sales, IndiGo, said: "As Saudi Arabia's capital and a key hub for trade and investment, Riyadh is significant for IndiGo to strengthen air connectivity with India. This new route from Bengaluru marks IndiGo's fourth non-stop connection to Riyadh, after Delhi, Mumbai, and Hyderabad. It will enhance accessibility for business and workforce from the region while reinforcing IndiGo's growing network across Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. With this launch, we continue our focus on expanding international connectivity and making travel more convenient."

Bookings are now open on IndiGo website (www.goIndiGo.in), the IndiGo mobile app, and across authorized travel partners.
